Barbados also has some incredible caves with two of the most famous being the Animal Flower sea cave and Harrison's, with its stalactites and stalagmites, underground waterfalls and curious covered pools.
In the interior of the island, the Barbados Nature Reserve provides ample opportunity to observe local wildlife, particularly the entertaining green monkeys. While the Gun Hill observation point, formerly used as a lookout for pirate ships, offers incredible panoramic views.
